Emily Firth - Fundraising Founder of TruthWorks

EPISODE 21 - FUNDRAISING FOUNDER: EMILY FIRTH - TRUTHWORKS In this episode, Laurie Lancee speaks with Emily Firth, co-founder of TruthWorks. TruthWorks is doing for HR consulting what Booking.com did for travel. A digital talent marketplace where organisations can find, compare and book trusted People and Culture experts on demand. No six-month procurement cycles, no opaque agency fees. Just the right expert, ready to go. HR consulting is a €50B market growing 7% year on year. But it still runs on legacy models that serve neither buyers nor experts well. TruthWorks is changing that. In just 2.5 months since launch, they have 50+ clients, 120+ experts and over €350K in GMV. We discuss the problem with legacy HR consulting, how TruthWorks verifies and scales quality, what their 70% repeat booking rate says about product-market fit, and why AI makes this model stronger, not weaker. Key Metrics: * Sector: HR Tech / Marketplace * Country: Netherlands * Business model: Two-sided marketplace * Market: €50B global HR consulting market (SHRM) * Traction: 50+ clients, 120+ experts, €350K+ GMV in 2.5 months * Raising: €450,000 seed round Listen to the full episode on AtVenture DealFlow.

Catharina Savelkoul- Fundraising Founder of legml.ai

Episode 20 - Fundraising Founder: Catharina Savelkoul - legml.ai In this episode, Laurie Lancee speaks with Catharina Savelkoul, co-founder and CEO of legml.ai. legml.ai is building the platform that brings sovereign, customised AI to every organisation. Not a chatbot. The actual infrastructure to deploy private, fine-tuned AI models inside a company's own systems, in hours rather than months. 95% of enterprise AI pilots fail. The reason is structural: regulated companies cannot send confidential data to public APIs, generic models don't understand internal workflows, and traditional implementation takes six to twelve months. legml.ai solves all three by automating data curation, fine-tuning, and deployment inside the client's own infrastructure. Data never leaves. We discuss how Catharina found her co-founder Mo on LinkedIn, why their sector-specific models outperform much larger frontier models, and why she believes the biggest barrier to AI adoption is not the technology but trust. Key Metrics: * Sector: Deeptech / AI * Country: Netherlands / France * Business model: B2B, deployment fee + monthly subscription * Market: €12 trillion enterprise AI opportunity * Value proposition: Private, fine-tuned AI deployed inside your own infrastructure, in hours not months Listen to the full episode on AtVenture DealFlow.

Lili Vogelsang- Fundraising founder of fredie

Episode 17 - Fundraising Founder: Lili Vogelsang- fredie In this episode, Laurie Lancee speaks with Lili Vogelsang, founder of fredie. fredie is building what they describe as a Duolingo for social skills. The platform helps Gen-Z practice real life social interactions, build confidence, and eventually form meaningful friendships offline. Loneliness among young people is increasingly described as a global issue. Despite being the most connected generation online, Gen-Z is also one of the loneliest. Some studies suggest that more than half of Gen-Z experiences loneliness. fredie focuses on improving what founder Lili Vogelsang calls Social Quotient (SQ). Just like IQ measures intelligence and EQ emotional intelligence, SQ relates to our ability to connect with others. In this conversation we discuss the loneliness epidemic, how social skills can be trained, and why even a few minutes of daily practice may improve confidence in social situations. Key insight from the episode: “Two to three minutes of practice per day can already improve your social skills.” Key Metrics: 1. Sector: Social tech / consumer wellbeing 2. Country: Germany 3. Business model: Freemium app B2C 4. Target users: Gen Z 5. Product: Social skills training platform Listen to the full episode on AtVenture DealFlow.
